I've got the wood-stocked version and love it. You have to work the slide with authority to keep from short-stroking it, and it's a bit heavy in the dove field, but it's stout and super-reliable.

My 835 has been a real performer,Deer,Turkey,Pigs,etc.Those 3 1/2 shells leave no doubt on your shoulder.I can definantly say the performance on the pigs has been stellar.

I like mine, but even 3'' buckshot will jitter your teeth. I did have a problem short stroking it till I stopped being easy on it. Gotta treat it like you mean it.

I know a feller that was really really dumb, folks said he didn't have good since, his name is Marshal.
Well Marshal bought himself one of those Mossberg 835's and when he got home with it he steped out in his back yard and fired off a 3 1/2 Turkey load.

Today everyone calls Marshal a very very smart man ! It seems when he fired off that 3 1/2" Turkey load with that Mossy 835...It knocked some since into him !
